A touch of god

RESUMEN: The author reflects on their prayers for the salvation of their neighbors and how easy it is for people to selectively choose who they would like to see saved based on their own criteria. They emphasize that God's plan of salvation is for everyone, and it is not for humans to decide who is worthy or not. The author encourages readers to see everyone around them as creatures in need of salvation and to offer prayers of mercy and be channels of blessing to those they would like to win. The touch of God can begin with a simple smile or an outstretched hand, and anyone can be an instrument of God's love and mercy.

For years I have prayed for people, loved ones, friends, relatives and neighbors pleading with God for the miracle of their salvation. I have humble, religious, sullen, friendly, unfriendly, indifferent, helpful, political, apolitical, demure and outgoing neighbors. All creatures of God, all in need of God.

Unlike Europe or other regions of the world, the Caribbean, and Cuba very particularly, is a country where you get to know your neighborhood. The shortcomings and needs of a whole generation in Cuba has simultaneously generated a sense of necessary human solidarity where it is not strange that a neighbor knocks on the door to ask for help, requesting anything from an aspirin to a blood donation for the operation of a relative ( I'm not exaggerating).
